Simon McVittie 6e480634c6 g_child_watch_source_new: Document restrictions for POSIX platforms
The warnings issued when dealing with waitpid() raising ECHILD are
somewhat misleading: there are lots of reasons why waitpid() might
fail in this way, and we can't tell which one has happened.
In particular, passing a non-child or a non-pid, waiting for the same
pid elsewhere, or creating a duplicate watch for the same pid would
all fail in the same way.

Consolidate the restrictions into one place, and change all the other
places they were (or should have been!) mentioned to point to
that one place.

* SECTION:spawn
* @Short_description: process launching
* @Title: Spawning Processes
*
* GLib supports spawning of processes with an API that is more
* convenient than the bare UNIX fork() and exec().
*
* The g_spawn family of functions has synchronous (g_spawn_sync())
* and asynchronous variants (g_spawn_async(), g_spawn_async_with_pipes()),
* as well as convenience variants that take a complete shell-like
* commandline (g_spawn_command_line_sync(), g_spawn_command_line_async()).
*
* See #GSubprocess in GIO for a higher-level API that provides
* stream interfaces for communication with child processes.
*
* An example of using g_spawn_async_with_pipes():
* |[<!-- language="C" -->
* const gchar * const argv[] = { "my-favourite-program", "--args", NULL };
* gint child_stdout, child_stderr;
* GPid child_pid;
* g_autoptr(GError) error = NULL;
*
* // Spawn child process.
* g_spawn_async_with_pipes (NULL, argv, NULL, G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD, NULL,
* NULL, &child_pid, NULL, &child_stdout,
* &child_stderr, &error);
* if (error != NULL)
* {
* g_error ("Spawning child failed: %s", error->message);
* return;
* }
*
* // Add a child watch function which will be called when the child process
* // exits.
* g_child_watch_add (child_pid, child_watch_cb, NULL);
*
* // You could watch for output on @child_stdout and @child_stderr using
* // #GUnixInputStream or #GIOChannel here.
*
* static void
* child_watch_cb (GPid pid,
* gint status,
* gpointer user_data)
* {
* g_message ("Child %" G_PID_FORMAT " exited %s", pid,
* g_spawn_check_exit_status (status, NULL) ? "normally" : "abnormally");
*
* // Free any resources associated with the child here, such as I/O channels
* // on its stdout and stderr FDs. If you have no code to put in the
* // child_watch_cb() callback, you can remove it and the g_child_watch_add()
* // call, but you must also remove the G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD flag,
* // otherwise the child process will stay around as a zombie until this
* // process exits.
*
* g_spawn_close_pid (pid);
* }

*
* Executes a child program asynchronously (your program will not
* block waiting for the child to exit). The child program is
* specified by the only argument that must be provided, @argv.
* @argv should be a %NULL-terminated array of strings, to be passed
* as the argument vector for the child. The first string in @argv
* is of course the name of the program to execute. By default, the
* name of the program must be a full path. If @flags contains the
* %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag, the `PATH` environment variable is
* used to search for the executable. If @flags contains the
* %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP flag, the `PATH` variable from
* @envp is used to search for the executable. If both the
* %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH and %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP flags
* are set, the `PATH` variable from @envp takes precedence over
* the environment variable.
*
* If the program name is not a full path and %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag is not
* used, then the program will be run from the current directory (or
* @working_directory, if specified); this might be unexpected or even
* dangerous in some cases when the current directory is world-writable.
*
* On Windows, note that all the string or string vector arguments to
* this function and the other g_spawn*() functions are in UTF-8, the
* GLib file name encoding. Unicode characters that are not part of
* the system codepage passed in these arguments will be correctly
* available in the spawned program only if it uses wide character API
* to retrieve its command line. For C programs built with Microsoft's
* tools it is enough to make the program have a wmain() instead of
* main(). wmain() has a wide character argument vector as parameter.
*
* At least currently, mingw doesn't support wmain(), so if you use
* mingw to develop the spawned program, it should call
* g_win32_get_command_line() to get arguments in UTF-8.
*
* On Windows the low-level child process creation API CreateProcess()
* doesn't use argument vectors, but a command line. The C runtime
* library's spawn*() family of functions (which g_spawn_async_with_pipes()
* eventually calls) paste the argument vector elements together into
* a command line, and the C runtime startup code does a corresponding
* reconstruction of an argument vector from the command line, to be
* passed to main(). Complications arise when you have argument vector
* elements that contain spaces of double quotes. The spawn*() functions
* don't do any quoting or escaping, but on the other hand the startup
* code does do unquoting and unescaping in order to enable receiving
* arguments with embedded spaces or double quotes. To work around this
* asymmetry, g_spawn_async_with_pipes() will do quoting and escaping on
* argument vector elements that need it before calling the C runtime
* spawn() function.
*
* The returned @child_pid on Windows is a handle to the child
* process, not its identifier. Process handles and process
* identifiers are different concepts on Windows.
*
* @envp is a %NULL-terminated array of strings, where each string
* has the form `KEY=VALUE`. This will become the child's environment.
* If @envp is %NULL, the child inherits its parent's environment.
*
* @flags should be the bitwise OR of any flags you want to affect the
* function's behaviour. The %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD means that the
* child will not automatically be reaped; you must use a child watch
* (g_child_watch_add()) to be notified about the death of the child process,
* otherwise it will stay around as a zombie process until this process exits.
* Eventually you must call g_spawn_close_pid() on the @child_pid, in order to
* free resources which may be associated with the child process. (On Unix,
* using a child watch is equivalent to calling waitpid() or handling
* the %SIGCHLD signal manually. On Windows, calling g_spawn_close_pid()
* is equivalent to calling CloseHandle() on the process handle returned
* in @child_pid). See g_child_watch_add().
*
* %G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN means that the parent's open file
* descriptors will be inherited by the child; otherwise all descriptors
* except stdin/stdout/stderr will be closed before calling exec() in
* the child. %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH means that @argv[0] need not be an
* absolute path, it will be looked for in the `PATH` environment
* variable. %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP means need not be an
* absolute path, it will be looked for in the `PATH` variable from
* @envp. If both %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH and %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH_FROM_ENVP
* are used, the value from @envp takes precedence over the environment.
* %G_SPAWN_STDOUT_TO_DEV_NULL means that the child's standard output
* will be discarded, instead of going to the same location as the parent's
* standard output. If you use this flag, @standard_output must be %NULL.
* %G_SPAWN_STDERR_TO_DEV_NULL means that the child's standard error
* will be discarded, instead of going to the same location as the parent's
* standard error. If you use this flag, @standard_error must be %NULL.
* %G_SPAWN_CHILD_INHERITS_STDIN means that the child will inherit the parent's
* standard input (by default, the child's standard input is attached to
* /dev/null). If you use this flag, @standard_input must be %NULL.
* %G_SPAWN_FILE_AND_ARGV_ZERO means that the first element of @argv is
* the file to execute, while the remaining elements are the actual
* argument vector to pass to the file. Normally g_spawn_async_with_pipes()
* uses @argv[0] as the file to execute, and passes all of @argv to the child.
*
* @child_setup and @user_data are a function and user data. On POSIX
* platforms, the function is called in the child after GLib has
* performed all the setup it plans to perform (including creating
* pipes, closing file descriptors, etc.) but before calling exec().
* That is, @child_setup is called just before calling exec() in the
* child. Obviously actions taken in this function will only affect
* the child, not the parent.
*
* On Windows, there is no separate fork() and exec() functionality.
* Child processes are created and run with a single API call,
* CreateProcess(). There is no sensible thing @child_setup
* could be used for on Windows so it is ignored and not called.
*
* If non-%NULL, @child_pid will on Unix be filled with the child's
* process ID. You can use the process ID to send signals to the child,
* or to use g_child_watch_add() (or waitpid()) if you specified the
* %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD flag. On Windows, @child_pid will be
* filled with a handle to the child process only if you specified the
* %G_SPAWN_DO_NOT_REAP_CHILD flag. You can then access the child
* process using the Win32 API, for example wait for its termination
* with the WaitFor*() functions, or examine its exit code with
* GetExitCodeProcess(). You should close the handle with CloseHandle()
* or g_spawn_close_pid() when you no longer need it.
*
* If non-%NULL, the @standard_input, @standard_output, @standard_error
* locations will be filled with file descriptors for writing to the child's
* standard input or reading from its standard output or standard error.
* The caller of g_spawn_async_with_pipes() must close these file descriptors
* when they are no longer in use. If these parameters are %NULL, the
* corresponding pipe won't be created.
*
* If @standard_input is NULL, the child's standard input is attached to
* /dev/null unless %G_SPAWN_CHILD_INHERITS_STDIN is set.
*
* If @standard_error is NULL, the child's standard error goes to the same
* location as the parent's standard error unless %G_SPAWN_STDERR_TO_DEV_NULL
* is set.
*
* If @standard_output is NULL, the child's standard output goes to the same
* location as the parent's standard output unless %G_SPAWN_STDOUT_TO_DEV_NULL
* is set.
*
* @error can be %NULL to ignore errors, or non-%NULL to report errors.
* If an error is set, the function returns %FALSE. Errors are reported
* even if they occur in the child (for example if the executable in
* @argv[0] is not found). Typically the `message` field of returned
* errors should be displayed to users. Possible errors are those from
* the #G_SPAWN_ERROR domain.
*
* If an error occurs, @child_pid, @standard_input, @standard_output,
* and @standard_error will not be filled with valid values.
*
* If @child_pid is not %NULL and an error does not occur then the returned
* process reference must be closed using g_spawn_close_pid().
*
* If you are writing a GTK+ application, and the program you are spawning is a
* graphical application too, then to ensure that the spawned program opens its
* windows on the right screen, you may want to use #GdkAppLaunchContext,
* #GAppLaunchcontext, or set the %DISPLAY environment variable.

* @exit_status: (out) (optional): return location for child exit status, as returned by waitpid()
* @error: return location for errors
*
* A simple version of g_spawn_sync() with little-used parameters
* removed, taking a command line instead of an argument vector. See
* g_spawn_sync() for full details. @command_line will be parsed by
* g_shell_parse_argv(). Unlike g_spawn_sync(), the %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH flag
* is enabled. Note that %G_SPAWN_SEARCH_PATH can have security
* implications, so consider using g_spawn_sync() directly if
* appropriate. Possible errors are those from g_spawn_sync() and those
* from g_shell_parse_argv().
*
* If @exit_status is non-%NULL, the platform-specific exit status of
* the child is stored there; see the documentation of
* g_spawn_check_exit_status() for how to use and interpret this.
*
* On Windows, please note the implications of g_shell_parse_argv()
* parsing @command_line. Parsing is done according to Unix shell rules, not
* Windows command interpreter rules.
* Space is a separator, and backslashes are
* special. Thus you cannot simply pass a @command_line containing
* canonical Windows paths, like "c:\\program files\\app\\app.exe", as
* the backslashes will be eaten, and the space will act as a
* separator. You need to enclose such paths with single quotes, like
* "'c:\\program files\\app\\app.exe' 'e:\\folder\\argument.txt'".
*
* Returns: %TRUE on success, %FALSE if an error was set

/**
* g_spawn_check_exit_status:
* @exit_status: An exit code as returned from g_spawn_sync()
* @error: a #GError
*
* Set @error if @exit_status indicates the child exited abnormally
* (e.g. with a nonzero exit code, or via a fatal signal).
*
* The g_spawn_sync() and g_child_watch_add() family of APIs return an
* exit status for subprocesses encoded in a platform-specific way.
* On Unix, this is guaranteed to be in the same format waitpid() returns,
* and on Windows it is guaranteed to be the result of GetExitCodeProcess().
*
* Prior to the introduction of this function in GLib 2.34, interpreting
* @exit_status required use of platform-specific APIs, which is problematic
* for software using GLib as a cross-platform layer.
*
* Additionally, many programs simply want to determine whether or not
* the child exited successfully, and either propagate a #GError or
* print a message to standard error. In that common case, this function
* can be used. Note that the error message in @error will contain
* human-readable information about the exit status.
*
* The @domain and @code of @error have special semantics in the case
* where the process has an "exit code", as opposed to being killed by
* a signal. On Unix, this happens if WIFEXITED() would be true of
* @exit_status. On Windows, it is always the case.
*
* The special semantics are that the actual exit code will be the
* code set in @error, and the domain will be %G_SPAWN_EXIT_ERROR.
* This allows you to differentiate between different exit codes.
*
* If the process was terminated by some means other than an exit
* status, the domain will be %G_SPAWN_ERROR, and the code will be
* %G_SPAWN_ERROR_FAILED.
*
* This function just offers convenience; you can of course also check
* the available platform via a macro such as %G_OS_UNIX, and use
* WIFEXITED() and WEXITSTATUS() on @exit_status directly. Do not attempt
* to scan or parse the error message string; it may be translated and/or
* change in future versions of GLib.
*
* Returns: %TRUE if child exited successfully, %FALSE otherwise (and
* @error will be set)
*
* Since: 2.34
